Goodbye Kiss

The duet was over

The house band changed their tune

Couldn't clock the rhythm

So I left the room

I walked along the High Line

Another point of view

Four million strangers

But I kept seeing you

And so it's come

It's come to this

A bitter taste

A goodbye kiss

Goodbye

It was game over

For all concerned

Phone lines disconnected

Promises returned

The flowers opened

Mocking our demise

I bent down to smell them

Just to avoid your eyes

And so it's come

It's come to this

A bitter taste

A goodbye kiss

Goodbye

The war was almost over

We were drawing up new maps

I never once believed

Our empire would

Empire would collapse

And so it's come

It's come to this

A bitter taste

A goodbye kiss

Goodbye
